SAYS DIVORCES SHOW
WORLD IS IMPROVING
Increased Number of Separations
i
Sure Proof, Jurist Informs
Ministers.
(Br United Fna to The Bend Bulletin.)
LOS ANGELES. Feb. 8. The
world is getting better. The Increas
ing number of divorces Is the proof.
That is the opinion of Judge
Charles Crall ot the Los Angeles di
vorce court.
Spread of education. Increased
prosperity enabling common people
to hire lawyers, and publicity are
the real reasons behind the increas
ing divorce rate, Crall believes.
"The question coming up all the
time is, what is the cause of the
greatly increased rate of divorce
cases," he declared, addressing a
meeting of Christian ministers. "It
is the result of two things.
"First, the increasing wealth of
the people and their education. In
years past law and lawsuits were
the privilege of the few. The result
is we have a great many people now
who can afford the advantages of the
divorce court who could not In the
past.
"Second, many people know ot
the divorce court by reading about it
on the front pages of tho daily news
papers, who once knew little of di
vorce. Don't think the greater number
of divorce cases indicates the world
is getting worse. I believe it is
getting better."
